Chapter 575 Prelude to the Battle of Berkshire

"How much does Captain Zhang know about Yan Yan?"

Yan Yan led the army to quell the rebellion. After Wang Ling got the news, he called Zhang Ren and Liu Zhiran to discuss the military situation.

Zhang Ren's face became serious when he heard the words, and said: "Yan Zhonglang is a famous general in Sichuan. He has been in the army for more than ten years and has never been defeated. A husband is undeservedly brave, but there is courage but no strategy.”

Wang Ling nodded: "That's right, but according to my lord, Yan Zhonglang is a qualified soldier."

"Qualified soldier?"

Zhang Ren was a little puzzled.

Wang Ling said: "My lord often says: Soldiers take obeying orders as their bounden duty, and soldiers only care about fighting and don't care about politics?"

Zhang Ren hesitated when he heard the words, don't care about politics?Zhang Ren has always believed that a general who does not understand politics is not a qualified general. Hearing Liu Bei's opinion now, he seems to be displeased with soldiers engaging in politics.

"Soldiers like Yan Zhonglang are suitable for the Lucheng Army. My lord said before that there are three generals in Yizhou who must be recruited. Among them are Yan Zhonglang and Captain Zhang."

Wang Ling continued, Zhang Ren was startled when he heard the words: "So-and-so?"

Wang Ling nodded, and Zhang Ren's heart felt like a large stone was dropped on a calm lake, turbulent, Yan Yan was a famous general in Shu, if Liu Bei knew it was normal, Zhang Ren was nothing, but a school captain!
Wang Ling yelled several times before Zhang Rencai regained his peace of mind, and at the same time secretly made up his mind: a scholar will die for his confidant, and the Lord values ​​XX so much, so XX will definitely do something earth-shattering.

"Wang Canjun, someone thinks that the soldiers should surround Guanghan before Yan Yan's army arrives, so that Yan Yan has to march forward in a hurry. You and I lie in ambush around the side, and use the Lucheng Army as the vanguard to defeat Yan Yan's army from the front. He has a high regard for himself, and if his army is defeated, he will not leave, whether it is to kill or capture, joining the army has the initiative."

This is Zhang Ren's real defection to the Lucheng Army. It was just a coincidence that he joined the Lucheng Army before, and soon he regretted it. However, a loyal minister is not a second master. He can't run around like Lu Bu to recognize his master!It wasn't until just now that he decided to sell himself to Lu Chengjun.

"it is good,"

Wang Ling nodded, looked at Zhang Ren and said, "I don't know if Captain Zhang dares to be the vanguard?"

"Thank you for joining the army for your trust."

Not only is Zhang Ren convinced by Wang Ling, but he is more trusted by Wang Ling than Liu Zhiran. Wang Ling made himself a pioneer, which shows his trust. Zhang He is like this, and so is Wang Ling. I don’t know how many such enlightened generals there are in the Lucheng Army. The Lucheng Army is famous all over the world, and there are so many famous generals, which makes Zhang Ren more and more determined about the Lucheng Army and the highest leader of the Lucheng Army, Qin Gong Liu Bei.

Wang Ling immediately mobilized [-] troops, numbering [-], and sent Zhang Ren as the vanguard to Guanghan, intending to fight Yan Yan in Guanghan City, attracting the attention of Yizhou.

In contrast, the Jiangzhou Rebellion in Bajun was not so conspicuous. The prefect of Daibajun, the general of Zhennan, and the Duke of Langzhong, Liu Gui, rushed out of Jiangzhou to attack and conquer Zhixian County. They also sent troops to Zhang Yun's headquarters in Huangshi.

In order to defeat Zhang Yun with one blow, Liu Gui mobilized all Jiangzhou's soldiers and sent an army of [-] troops out of Jiangzhou.

Zhang He's troops were only a few thousand people, and Zhang He's side was only a thousand Lucheng troops and two thousand Thunder Copper recruits after the division into three groups. Even if Liu Gui's moisture content was reduced by half, the ratio was still ten to one.

The law of war says: if it is ten, surround it, if it is five, you will attack it, if it is twice the size, you will fight it, if it is too small, you will be able to divide it, if it is small, you will be able to escape from it, and if it is not enough, you will be able to evade it.Therefore, the strength of a small enemy is the capture of a big enemy.

It means that if the enemy is ten times larger than the enemy, we will encircle and suppress them; if we are five times larger than the enemy, we will attack; if we are twice as large as the enemy, we must strive to defeat the enemy;If the army is weaker than the enemy, avoid fighting.Therefore, if the weak side fights hard, it will become a prisoner of the powerful enemy.

Liu Gui raised an army of [-], but Zhang Gui, who was in the Fu Festival, could not stand firm, and even seemed to back down when facing Jiangyang's soldiers and horses.

Yan Yan fought against Zhang Ren and Wang Ling in Guanghan, and Liu Gui hunted Zhang He in Jiangzhou. No matter who defeated Zhang He or Wang Ling, the Berkshire Rebellion would be suppressed unless most of the Lucheng army broke through Baishui Pass and Jiameng Pass in one go , or Guan Yu and Wang Wei defeated Yufu and supported Zhang Yun.

However, everything seemed so unrealistic. After Liu Bei got the news, he also said to Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia: "Yan Xing and Jun Yi are some valued generals. What should we do in the face of such a dangerous situation?"

Xi Zhicai blinked his eyes, Guo Jia took a sip of his wine and said, "My lord, didn't the purpose of sending the Imperial Forest Army over Micang Mountain back then was to disturb the interior of Yizhou? Now Liu Gui has sent [-] troops out of Jiangzhou to support Pang Xi." Yan Yan's army was transferred to pacify Wang Ling. This does not prove that the lord has a sharp strategic vision! As for whether they can change the situation of the battle, it depends on the abilities of the two of them. Now Baishui Pass is in danger, and it will be a matter of time before it can be captured. Jiameng Pass, Jiange Pass It is also a difficulty, but I am afraid that Yizhou does not have enough troops to defend."

Xi Zhicai said: "Don't worry, my lord, Zhang Jun is a brave general! My lord has a secret order, he will be able to protect himself, Wang Yanxing has Liu Zhiran on his left and Zhang Ren on his right, can he go up to the mountain and become the king of the mountain if he loses? What's more, the lord has extraordinary expectations for Zhang Ren , the three people in Yizhou must recruit Yan Yan, Zhang Ren, and Gan Ning. If this is the case, the lord should trust Zhang Ren."

"Maybe it's someone's worry!"

Liu Bei casually dropped the Berkshire information and asked Guo Jia, "How is the battle at Baishui Pass?"

Guo Jiadao: "Now all the armies are attacking in order, training the siege according to the previously formulated plan. The imperial guards performed the best, and Zhang Ji's Xiliang army performed the worst, but they also performed the most attentively."

This is natural. Since Zhang Ji wanted to gain a foothold in the Lucheng Army, he had to show sincerity. Now that Zhang Xiu is alone in the army, Zhang Ji's prestige has greatly increased. Therefore, Zhang Ji is more attentive. Since the Lucheng Army has no shortage of brave soldiers, There is no shortage of fighting or dying.

Therefore, Zhang Ji's performance was unanimously approved by the Lucheng Army. Even Yu Jin, Gao Shun, Hao Zhao, etc. were infected. Guan has not changed hands.

Liu Bei nodded, looked at Xi Zhicai and said, "Wenpin and Pang De have news."

Xi Zhicai shook his head, there has been no news since entering the mountain.

How could it be possible to avoid the Yinping trail that Deng Ai once walked in the Battle of Shu? With the Royal Forest Army crossing Micang Mountain, coupled with Xi Zhicai's layout over the past few years, most of the Baimu soldiers led by Wenpin and Pound took the Yinping trail more smoothly. , Even if it goes well, people are full of worries. After all, Deng Ai was close to death at that time. Can Wenpin and Pang De be as lucky as Deng Ai?
